That looks like Whale Beach if you are Stevie Wonder and have no sense of Warm and Cold.  |

I love the abundance of seaweed that appears in that picture. When you are swimming, seaweed feels so nice underfoot! The poor Aussies at Whale Beach and similar Sydney locales have to endure crystal clear waters with a water temperature of 21C in the summer. |

I get what you are saying but its important to note that the NRL salary cap isnt anywhere near £6.4 million in 2014. It will be $6.3 million which is roughly £4.25 million, still considerably more than the cap here but not as much as you indicate. |

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

So where does Bondi fit into that? Or Coogee? When did I suggest that? Im pretty sure there in the Eastern Suburbs and as I said before its not my favorite area as I think its ridiculously over priced and most areas aren't that nice anyway.
You need to understand that people can have their own opinions are where is best to live in Sydney. Many would agree with me just like many would disagree with. Doesn't make either right hence the term 'opinion'.'"
League Freak knows best - sadly he is the only one who thinks that  Next he will be saying Josh Dugan is coming to Saints!! |

Again just for a bit if balance, my commute in the UK now consists of a really nice drive over country lanes, either in my classic car or my rather nice other car I've been able to afford, as opposed to a 45 minute ride (for a 6km journey) on an over crowded bus with no air conditioning - living tge dream

BS. Roosters CEO has stated publicly already that they are not interested.
They are grooming Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, who by 2015 will be one of the top 5 full backs in the world. |

Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

I'm still a little puzzled as to why an NRL club would want Gareth Hock given his known disciplinary problems.

Simply because despite his disciplinary problems he is still a very destructive runner who can create something out of nothing.
Regardless of the way things ended at Wigan he was looking back to his very best following his drug-ban. |

[quote="The Reason":3e09qe5x]Hi Andy
The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

Can you post a link to this, as you keep banging on about it, even though the Roosters Recruitment manager has publicly stated they would be interested just like most of the NRL teams and it would be far from the first time a CEO has denied something and then it happens. He has been linked with many teams, but unlike many I don't believe much I read in the media.
I think RL fans have lost track of the amount of times we have heard of a player being groomed for the next big thing only to disappear a few years later. Whilst im not saying that any of this is true or will happen I would just love to know how you think you know so much. |
